This visualization displays the locations and magnitudes of missing migrant incidents on a world map. Each circle represents an incident, with its radius scaled to the square root of the total number of dead and missing people, using a square-root scale for area proportionality. The map uses an equirectangular projection from d3.geoPath, with land polygons and graticules rendered as SVG paths, sourced from world-atlas TopoJSON data. Incident coordinates and fatality counts are parsed from a CSV dataset provided by a gist, and the visualization is built with React and d3.v5.

Missing Migrants on Map

A world map displays the locations of missing migrant incidents, with circle size scaled proportionally to the total dead and missing count at each coordinate. The visualization uses an equirectangular projection via `d3.geoEquirectangular` and `d3.geoPath`, overlaid with graticules and country boundaries from TopoJSON. Circle radii are determined by a square-root scale (`d3.scaleSqrt`) mapping the maximum casualty count to 15 pixels. The React-based SVG rendering loads CSV data containing geospatial coordinates and casualty figures, styling landmasses and interior borders for a polished, readable presentation.

Missing Migrants on a Map

This visualization maps global missing migrant incidents, with each circle representing an event and its radius scaled proportionally to the reported deaths and missing persons using a square root scale. The map uses a natural Earth projection rendered via d3.geoPath, drawing landmasses, graticules, and country boundaries from World Atlas TopoJSON. Data comes from the Missing Migrants Dataset, loaded with d3.csv. The React app integrates with D3 v5, rendering all elements as SVG circles layered over geographic paths.

Missing Migrants on a Map

This visualization shows the locations of missing migrants on a world map, using a natural Earth projection to render landmasses and graticules. Each migrant incident is drawn as a semi-transparent circle, with its radius scaled proportionally to the total number of dead and missing via a square-root scale. The map is built with d3.geoPath for geographic features and d3.geoGraticule for the coordinate grid, while data is loaded from a CSV file using d3.csv. The entire SVG is assembled in React, with world atlas topology processed through the topojson library’s feature and mesh functions.

Missing Migrants on a Map

This visualization maps missing migrant incidents worldwide, with circles sized by the total number of dead and missing individuals at each location. The map uses a natural Earth projection with graticules, country boundaries, and a light color scheme. The React app loads CSV data and world-atlas TopoJSON, then renders SVG marks via `d3.geoPath` and a square-root scale for circle radii. The underlying data is drawn from the Missing Migrant Project dataset.

Missing Migrants on a Map

This visualization maps reported incidents of missing migrants worldwide, with circles sized by the total number of dead and missing at each location. The map uses a natural Earth projection rendered with SVG via `d3.geoPath`, with country boundaries and graticules drawn from TopoJSON data. Circle radii are scaled using `d3.scaleSqrt` based on the maximum reported casualties. The dataset comes from the Missing Migrants Project, and the visualization is built with React and D3 v5.

Missing Migrants on World Map

This visualization displays missing migrant incidents on a world map as semi-transparent circles. The map uses a D3 geographic projection (geoNaturalEarth1) with SVG paths for land, graticules, and country interiors rendered through d3.geoPath. Circle radii encode the total dead and missing count via d3.scaleSqrt, and the data comes from the Missing Migrants Global dataset. The React-based component loads world topology from TopoJSON and plots each incident at its parsed coordinates from the CSV.

Missing Migrants map

This map visualizes missing migrant incidents worldwide, with circles sized proportionally to the total number of dead and missing individuals using a d3.scaleSqrt scale. Each circle is positioned at its recorded coordinates via a geoNaturalEarth1 projection and drawn with geoPath for landmasses, graticules, and country interiors from the world-atlas TopoJSON dataset. The React-based visualization uses D3 v7 to load CSV data containing location coordinates and casualty counts, rendering semi-transparent teal circles over a muted geographic backdrop.

Missing Migrants on a Map

This visualization displays a world map of missing migrant incidents, with circle markers sized according to the total number of dead and missing individuals at each location. The map uses a natural Earth projection with graticules and country borders rendered as SVG paths, while circles are overlaid with square-root scaling for radius. Built with React and D3 v5, the example loads world atlas topology via the `topojson` library and pulls data from a CSV file. The `geoNaturalEarth1` projection and `geoPath` handle geographic mapping, while circles are positioned using the projection coordinates.
